Setting up a Chuppah is a two person job and has a fair degree of difficulty with approximately a 1 to 2 hour time investment. Though some have successfully assembled a chuppah for wedding, we don't recommend this as a do it yourself project. You will need a ladder and at least one helper. Wedding arch normally cannot withstand high winds. On a windy day, the fabric will often catch the wind and can act as a sail. High winds tend to make the canopies blow over - or at least blow the decor about. A canopy that is staked to the ground can be used outside with minimum worry. If the Arch is to be on a hard surface, like concert or on a deck, sand bags may be used. We cannot guarantee that a canopy will withstand extremely windy conditions. We deliver, set up, decorate and take down ceremony arch. We do offer a same day and even a late night arch removal service.
